MARINTEK has chosen Moog Controls as partner to upgrade the Ocean Basin, which was built in 1981, with new technology. The aim is to not only make the system more robust and more reliable but also to provide enhanced capabilities, such as larger waves over a wider area of the basin and more directional flexibility. The most important driver for the upgrade was the need to increase overall performance. Indeed, an accuracy of 0.1 degrees for all flaps was requested to guarantee the creation of highly reproducible waves with a height of up to 0.4m as little as every 1.6 seconds.
